like this
  PID USERNAME    THR PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE  C   TIME   WCPU 
COMMAND
31856 root          1  96    0  8884K  4864K select 1   2:52  0.00%

python2.5
  877 mailman       1  96    0 10996K  7560K select 1   0:21  0.00% 
python2.5

dmesg should contain stuff like this (dmesg | grep -i cpu)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU          6300  @ 1.86GHz (1868.55-MHz 686-
class CPU)
FreeBSD/SMP: Multiprocessor System Detected: 2 CPUs
 cpu0 (BSP): APIC ID:  0
 cpu1 (AP): APIC ID:  1
cpu0: <ACPI CPU> on acpi0
est0: <Enhanced SpeedStep Frequency Control> on cpu0
p4tcc0: <CPU Frequency Thermal Control> on cpu0
cpu1: <ACPI CPU> on acpi0
est1: <Enhanced SpeedStep Frequency Control> on cpu1
p4tcc1: <CPU Frequency Thermal Control> on cpu1
SMP: AP CPU #1 Launched!

since I started monitoring yesterday, my cores are within 1 degree of 
each other all the time, server running apache + samba + exim, mainly 
as file and print server.

PS: I cannot find any man pages for est() and p4tcc()
The man page for acpi_thermal says it is part of 'device acpi' which 
is loading, but is not finding anything thermal on this motherboard.
